Hey everyone, it's Thursday and time for a brand new Lavinia World Challenges #38! Since Halloween is right around the corner, I decided that's the theme I would use. The theme is always anything goes using a stamped image, but no digital images please. The winner will receive a $15 gift code to Lavinia World.
I used Willow the Witch and a bunch of different dies to create today's project.
I started out by stamping Willow with VersaFine Clair (Twilight) onto my background that was created with Distress Oxides. I must have had some sort of residue on my hands when I touched the stamp because when I stamped her, she came out this teal/dark bluish black color. I have no idea why it did it but I loved it and I also know I'll never be able to recreate it. I also lost some of the details on her sleeves, but I was ok with that.
I stamped her a couple more times on plain white cardstock and was able to get a lighter versions. Here is one of the versions. I heat embossed both the project and the image below with clear embossing powder. This will allow me to add my background later without messing up the stamped image.
Next, I began building the forest that Willow was creating her potions in. I used Memory Box (Rustic Tree Collage, Willowbend Collage) dies to create the trees and then accented them with a ghost, spider, bats and a broom from Tutti Designs (Spooky Banner, Spooky Tree).
The next step was to frame the scene using an Impression Obsession die (All-in-One-Frames:Rectangles 2). I dry embossed the die cut with a Crafters Companion embossing folder (Wood Grain) and then inked it up with Distress Oxides.

Anne this is a fantastic Halloween card! Love the Spooky forest you conjured up! Love it!
What a fun card and i love the spookiness. I love your selection of dies.. i have been wanting to get this set and i think you've convinced me.
Your card has the makings for a faboolous spooky story ... Deep in the woods ... :-) Love the whole idea of walking deep into the woods to find Willow concocting some kind of spell. Of course, you wouldn't catch me anywhere near there, but I like the thought :-) Lena xx
Spooky, indeed! Love the frame and scene, Anne - really fantastic usse of the layers. Is Willow's broom playing hide and seek? Will she ever find it? hugs, de
You made a lovely Halloweeny, spooky scene here, Anne! Loving all the different layers. Really quite dimensional.
